What a glorious morning, the thunder and the lightening showing forth His glory. What a difference is all of creation when we see His mighty loving hands behind the way things are, even if those things are broken. Blessing and Glory and Honor be unto the One Who Sits on the Throne, and to the Lamb, and to the fullness of the Mighty Spirit who so evidently does as He pleases.

Isaiah says:
23 Sing, O heavens, for the Lord has done it;
shout, O depths of the earth;
break forth into singing, O mountains,
O forest, and every tree in it!
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob, and will be glorified in Israel.
24 Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, who formed you from the womb:
“I am the Lord, who made all things,
who alone stretched out the heavens,
who spread out the earth by myself,

This song of Glory is all around us at all times. We have to listen to hear it and look to see it with ears and eyes opened by the Spirit of God. Yet this speaks some of what C. S. Lewis refers to as the “Deeper Magic.” That order of things which are at the root and ground of all Creation and the basis for Redemption. The heavens sing of his mighty acts, what he has done. All these things are founded, not on some random chance, nor do these things make themselves. The LORD makes all things. He stretched the canvas of the Earth and he painted on it what he liked. He redeemed us from sin that had an infinite penalty because it was sin against an infinitely holy God. He is still drawing our story and we get to color in the picture. He is worth singing about.
